Motorola on Monday announced that some of its handsets sold outside the United States, Canada and Japan will come preloaded with MTV's interactive games series Plastikulture. The games will come on phones including the E398, C650, V220 and E680 models, and will be available in Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The first game in the series will be "Hairstyler," followed by "TroubleMaker." The series will be supported by a Web site that offers 11 languages.

Motorola handsets outside the United States also will feature Exquisite Corpse wallpaper, screensavers, ring tones and video from MTV. The two companies began their global marketing alliance last year.
